Protecting Ashley in the village. hints and tips for Resident Evil 4

Protecting Ashley in the village.

Ask anyone who has beaten this game and they will tell you, that protecting Ashley while re-visiting the village was a pretty tough challenge. While re-playing the level today, I came up with some tips that can help anyone out with the level, and possibly make it easier. Alright, the first thing that you want to do, is use your hears and listen for sounds. Capcom did a good job on this part because the rain and thunder blocks out the sound of footsteps, so keep on your toes because a Ganado could be behind you and you would not even know it. As soon as you leave the church, go up into that big tower, and climb up the ladder. When Ashley climb up into the tower, tell her to wait there, this will keep her safe from any harm. Pull out your Sniper Rifle and look around that house where you get the shotgun from on your first visit, you should see a ganado around there so shoot them in the head. Then, turn left so that you are looking to the left of the church entrance, and you should see another Ganado, kill him as well. Leave the tower(leaving Ashley up there) and go onto the roof of the house where you got the Shotgun. Now, face the exit of the village with your Sniper Rifle, and zoom in all the way. If you look closely, you should be able to see the red of the Ganado's eyes even though you cannot see their bodies. Shoot them, and when they are dead, shoot the beartraps with your handgun. Go near the entrance to the village, and you should see more Ganados coming at you so go into a building and shoot at them as they try to come in. After that, call Ashley, walk past the Bear traps, and go through the exit.

Hope this helps.
